Just started Mass Effect 2. I'm only on the 2nd mission right now, but so far it seems like a big step backwards from ME1 in almost every way. Please tell me it gets better…

I also installed and briefly played Galactic Civilizations II. Wowza…talk about a learning curve. It's been a long time since I've actually needed to read the manual for a game. I think I'll save it for when I have more free time.
